Ingredients:
- 12 oz Blade & Bow Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
- 8 cups milk of your choice
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup hot cocoa mix
- 4 tsp honey
Preparation:
- You can melt chocolate chips using a double boiler, a saucepan, or the microwave.
Saucepan: Pour about ½ inch to 1 inch of water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, then place a bowl on top. Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Pour the chocolate chips into the bowl and stir until melted.
Microwave: Microwave the chocolate chips in 20-second intervals at 50% power, stirring between each interval. The time it takes to melt depends on the size of the chocolate chips: 1 cup takes about 1 minute. - Once the chocolate chips are melted, stir in honey, milk, and hot cocoa mix. Allow mixture to sit and cool, about 10 minutes.
- When the mixture is cooled enough to drink, mix in Blade and Bow.
- Serve with marshmallows or whipped cream and enjoy!
